It's not like they work a lot, why would a religious leader need to outsource spiritual advice to a chatbot? It only shows that all humans are lazy, no matter how virtuous they want to be seen as. IMO this counts as sloth.
Hopefully this discredits religions even more with the younger generations. Claiming that an immensely powerful being demands obedience of you, and keeps tabs on you all the time, but his orders only go through a chosen few, was a hard proposition to begin with.
- edgyquant 8mo agoYou’re seething hatred is so obvious from this comment that no one should consider your opinion as anything close to valid
- ASalazarMX 8mo agoI don't think so. I didn't use hateful language, and while I see religion, especially for-profit religion, as a net societal loss, I don't think I worded my argument as seething hatred. I can see how a strong disagreement can be dismissed as hate, though. It preserves the cognitive dissonance between reality and belief.

- ASalazarMX 8mo agoI think it's even more pernicious. Religious leaders want to tell you what to think, but since it usually benefits them, it takes constant reinforcement to be effective. On the contrary, we willingly use (and even pay for) chatbots so they increasingly think for us, and it would take a monumental effort to take them away from us now. People would even make their own if needed, but at least in that case, it won't be a megacorp telling the chatbot what to think in the first place.
